Jan. 10, 2017
SIL 2-certified transmitter designed for safety system applications was selected in the sensor category.
United Electric Controls, has won the 2016 exida safety award  in the sensor category for its One Series safety transmitter. The SIL 2-certified transmitter is designed solely for safety system applications. According to United Electric, the safety transmitter is the first transmitter to incorporate a logic solver and high capacity safety relay output (SRO) in addition to an industry standard transmitter, in a single explosion-proof enclosure.
“Each year we honor those companies that stand out as having made a unique contribution to industrial safety,"  said exida partner Chris O’Brien. "By integrating a safety logic solver and high capacity safety relay with an industrial transmitter, United Electric Controls’ One Series offers a simple, economical approach for enhancing functional safety,”
The transmitter is available in versions that monitor temperature or pressure.
